The Barrierguard Traffic Safety Bucket with directional selection buffer is an impact-absorbing device designed for highway safety applications. Comprising an energy-absorbing section and installation components, this system utilizes aluminum alloy construction for optimal impact energy absorption and dissipation.
During collision events, the absorbing buffer device undergoes controlled deformation. For minor impacts, only the shock absorber requires replacement, making maintenance operations straightforward and efficient.
What is this product?
This is a crash cushion device installed at high-risk areas including highway forks, tunnel entrances, and intersections. Its primary function is to absorb impact energy during vehicle collisions, protecting both drivers and vehicles.
How does it work?
The product contains an aluminum alloy energy-absorbing core that deforms upon impact to absorb kinetic energy, reducing transmitted forces and minimizing accident damage.
What happens if it gets damaged? Is repair complicated?
Repair is straightforward and designed for quick replacement. Following collisions, typically only the internal energy-absorbing core requires replacement while outer shells and structural components often remain intact, keeping repair costs low and restoration times minimal.
What installation methods are available?
Three installation options are provided: fixed to existing guardrails, fixed to high barriers, or embedded directly into the ground. Selection can be made based on specific site conditions.
Why is it yellow/orange?
The bright-colored shell combined with high-intensity reflective film ensures clear visibility and effective driver warnings during daytime, nighttime, and adverse weather conditions.
Can the product accommodate different speeds?
Yes. The product series includes models HSK-60, HSK-80, and HSK-100, corresponding to design protection speeds of 60, 80, and 100 km/h respectively. Model selection should align with applicable road speed limits.
Is a foundation required?
For embedded installation methods, a concrete foundation must be prepared according to specified dimensional and weight requirements.
What certifications does the product have?
The internal energy-absorbing core is patented and has successfully passed safety crash testing according to international standards, ensuring operational reliability.
